4400 Transmission

[richiep]

Hi,

I have just acquired a JD 4400 with Sync Reverser. The problem I'm having is with the clutch engagement; when reverse is selected clutch engagement is smooth, forward is very jerky - if I gradually lift my foot nothing happens until it feels like the end of the clutch travel has been reached then it suddenly engages. It's weird, sometimes I can completely remove my foot from the peddle and nothing happens but when I touch the peddle it suddenly engages?

I suspect that the clutch is faulty but want to be sure before I split the tractor.

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks, Richie

Hi Joe,

yes please, that would be very helpful. Do I need to disclose my email or can you send me the manual through this thread?

Thanks again,

Richie

You can also use the private messaging system through TBN so you don't put your contact info out in the public forums.
